CrossBelow

[malej.gregy]

Hello,

can you please help me with a simple problem with CrossBelow?

I want the program to start some action when the price is below same trigger. This action should continue in 5 concesutive bars no matter on how the price will move during these 5 bars.

I used the simple CrossBelow:

[FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#0000ff][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#0000ff][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#0000ff]if[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#000000](CrossBelow(Closes[[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080]1[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#000000]], -[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080]800[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#000000], [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080]5[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#000000]))[/COLOR]
{
Print(Closes[[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080]1[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2]][[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800080]0[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2][FONT=Courier New][SIZE=2]]);
};
[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]

which works only when the condition holds, i.e. action is not done when the price is higher than -800 during following 5 bars.

Can you please help me on that? Shall I use any other command?

Hello Stepan,

The 5 value in your CrossBelow condition is a lookback. This means it looks for a cross condition anytime in the last 5 bars.

This action should continue in 5 concesutive bars no matter on how the price will move during these 5 bars.

I would first look at LeastRecentOccurence to see if it works for you. In example below lookback on cross condition changed to 1, and the LRO lookback is 5.

int barsAgo = LRO(delegate {return CrossBelow(Closes[1], -800, 1) ;}, 1, 5);

if (barsAgo > -1)
{
DrawDiamond("diamond" + CurrentBar, true,0, High[0], Color.Purple);
}

I double checked and you're using a multiseries script, which will not work with LRO, MRO.

In this case you can custom code something, by working with CurrentBar. I helped another community member with a similar problem in this thread.

Please review posts 8 - 12 and let me know if you're not able to come up with something.

Hi Ryan,
